Philly Cheesesteaks

Philly Cheesesteaks are a mouthwatering stop on the path of cleaning up “junk food” described in Whopper night. Cheesesteaks are an iconic American street food because they’re so freakin’ delicious! A good cheesesteak warms your soul and fills your belly. Made simply – just organic fresh produce, melted raw cheddar, sourdough and shaved grass-fed steak – clean cheesesteaks won’t leave you bloated and heavy like modern cheesesteaks will with all the seed oils and inflammatory ingredients.

1. Ingredients:
   • Sourdough baguette (when we don’t have baguettes we use sourdough country loaf)
   • Raw cheese (raw white cheddar is our favorite)
   • Raw butter
   • 100% grass-fed pastured steak. White Oak Pastures is our go-to farm. We use chuck steak and slice it thin with a meat slicer.
   • Salt (we use Vera Salt‘s microplastic free ancient spring salt)
   • Organic baby bella mushrooms
   • Organic bell peppers
   • Organic yellow onions

Making Philly Cheesesteaks:

As a point of reference: 1 pound of beef, 1/2 pound of cheese, 1 bell pepper, 1 onion, and 1/4 pound of mushrooms can fill two of our demi baguettes.

Start by chopping your onions, mushrooms and peppers.

You can use a cast-iron pan on the grill or a stainless steel pan on the stove.

Add a tablespoon of butter to the pan.

Sautee your veggies in the pan until they soften up a bit.

Take the veggies out of the pan and put them in a bowl to the side.

Put another tablespoon of butter in the pan and add your meat to the pan. Salt the meat to your liking. Cook the meat until it’s mostly brown.

Throw your veggies back in the pan, on top of the meat, then mix it all together.

Let it all simmer together for a minute, then throw your cheese on top. Grating the cheese first helps it spread and melt.

Stir the pan so that the melting cheese gets nice and mixed in.

One the melted cheese fully covers your veggies and meat, you’re ready to scoop in onto the baguette and enjoy!
